[personality] Born in Inaba to the owners of the little town's textile shop, Kanji took to the business rather easily; for him it came naturally. However, because of this, it got him teased by not only the boys, but the girls as well. This, coupled with the experience of his father's death, drove Kanji away from people in general. He stuck to sewing due to the insecurities he developed over being teased for it, and slowly, began keeping it a beloved secret as he started becoming a bit of a problem child. This soon turned to delinquency of all sorts as Kanji sought to cover up said insecure feelings by being how he believed a man should be; tough in every way, shape and form.

If anyone questioned his newfound manliness, they were dealt with in an aggressive manner. Soon, most people stopped mocking him face to face, and began fearing him, little by little. His bad reputation spread quickly, and as intended, no one seemed to care to mention the sewing or any such thing. His attitude was still simply a front, a way to push back the weird feelings he had when it came to men and women, and to try and ignore the people that had teased him so.

As a bit of an aside, a person that at first made his confused feelings even worse was Naoto Shirogane, the very tomboyish detective. Before finding out she was indeed female, Kanji was, to put it lightly, thrown for a loop. After finding out she was female though, he actually expresses a bit of relief, since it indirectly helps him deal with himself better.

However, because of this constant denial, when he gets captured and put into the tv world that Souji and the gang travel in, his Shadow embodies all of his issues. The main form it takes are the feelings he has towards men, as well as his need to be seen as being tough, and his need to be accepted. Upon eventually accepting this side of him, Kanji gradually gets better about his insecurities, and even ends up starting his own sewing class. He can still be rather easy to rile up though, even if he has come a pretty long way.

[orientation] Heterosexual; I think that based off Post-True Ending Kanji's acceptance of himself and willingness to be more himself around others means the things he thought made him otherwise like sewing and liking cute things to me takes away most of the doubts he had during the game. His pent up issues were dealt with in the game enough for this to make sense to me.

[appearance] N/A

[wish] To see his dad one last time, to let him know he'll be okay.

[requested house] No request, couldn't make a choice, so if it's okay, can I leave it up to you Mods?

[misc notes] Kanji is the brawn of his group of friends, his weapon of choice being anything flat and sturdy like chairs, boards, etc. If unarmed, he has no problem using his fists, and is surprisingly strong for his age.

He also has the ability to wield something called a Persona, and his is named Rokuten-Mao. It has lightning based attacks. If it can't be used within the game I'll understand, but if so, I can list its' abilities in here afterward.

SAMPLES
[sample 1#] (Network post)

[The audio is switched on, and after some further studying of the intsruction manual given with the device, the record button is hit. A very confused sounding male voice comes out of it next in the following recorded message.]

W-what the Hell...? [It's a murmur, but easily heard, some rustling cloth accompanying the question. This person is apparently messing with the arrival outfit they were placed into.]

Uh..hello? Anyone there?

[A tapping sound can be heard as Kanji fiddles with the device some more, cutting the video on and coming through in good ol' black and white! He frowns into the screen, studying this...thing.]

This damn thing on? Hey! What's goin on here, huh!? This better not be your fault, Yosuke-senpai, you got that!?

[Grumbles to himself as he hits the record button again, turning that off as he's last seen looking around...]

[sample 2#] (Smut drabble)

Kanji was...mindblowingly uncertain and nervous about this. He stood just a few short feet away from this very cute girl, who, after speaking with him for some time, had asked if he wanted to, well..have sex. His eyes had widened when she asked him, and they still were wide even now, a deep blush staining his cheeks as he stared.

"A-Are you sure?" He had asked, gulping a couple of times more than he honestly should have. Kanji Tatsumi had never really even given a girl a hug, much less what she was asking of him now. It took several wipes of his nose before he was able to respond to her eager head nod. She was his age, so he wouldn't get in trouble for this, right?

Still, it was scary to him, because he knew he had absolutely zero experience in this area, and he had even told her that, but she seemed set on his, and she didn't look bad either, and she was cool, and fun to be around for sure, but....could he do this? Could he do this? She told him she would guide him, help him along, and he nods his head as he approaches her, a shaking hand taking one of hers.

Should he kiss it? That was the nice, man-like thing to do, right? No wait, taking her in his arms and planting a kiss on her was much more manly, so he did just that, and despite his eagerness to impress, the kiss itself was very chaste on his part. When the girl snuck in some tongue Kanji pulled back, blinking furiously.

"A-Am I supposed to do that too?" He asks, looking worried about not being aware of the whole fact. That's how kisses went usually, Kanji. The girl confirms his question with another nod of her head, and assures him again that everything will be okay. As she presses a kiss to his lips this time, the boy counts to ten, closes his eyes, and kisses her in return.

Still a little sloppy, though.
